Chapter 532: 298 Kill the Snake_2

"How about it, are you interested in joining us, and the three of us work together?"

Fang Zhixing extended the invitation.

Fan Qiulai fell into silence; after a moment, he spoke, "To be honest, younger brother, I knew someone before who wanted to be a middleman just like you. I supported him too and handed over the treasures I had for him to deal with."

"But unexpectedly, he was killed soon afterward, and the treasures were also stolen. I still don’t know who killed him."

Fang Zhixing raised his eyebrows and said, "Hmm, there are definitely risks involved, but you don’t have to worry too much. Our division of labor is clear; you and Yan Jingfeng stay hidden while I remain in the open. The three of us will work together to grow bigger and stronger."

Fan Qiulai seriously said, "Are you really willing to take on such a big risk, younger brother?"

Fang Zhixing laughed and said, "I’ll take a bigger share of the profits; you don’t mind, right brother?"

"If that’s the case..."

Fan Qiulai laughed heartily, slapping his thigh, "Well, that sounds good; count me in!"

Fang Zhixing’s heart leaped with joy, and he said excitedly, "Great, then I’ll go ahead to Dai State and wait for you."

Fan Qiulai smiled and said, "Mm-hmm, I’ll sort things out here and then meet up with you. Oh, right, the Water Attribute treasure you wanted—I’ve already contacted a seller. They have ’Yiyuan Heavy Water’!"

Fang Zhixing’s eyes immediately lit up. This "Yiyuan Heavy Water" was incredibly precious; its essence lay in its "weight," with a single drop weighing tens of thousands of pounds.

If Yiyuan Heavy Water was added to the Myriad People Blade, it would certainly increase the blade’s weight and substantially boost its Attack Power.

And Fang Zhixing himself was of the Giant Bear Series, with his most suitable weapon being the Heavy Blade.

"Good!"

Fang Zhixing, full of anticipation, replied, "Thanks for the trouble, brother."

"Mm-hmm, wait for my good news."

Fan Qiulai chuckled.

The two ended their communication.

Xigou leaned in and whispered, "We should leave. You killed the Crown Prince, and you may have alarmed Prince Zian. We need to make a quick escape."

Fang Zhixing nodded. Indeed, he was not yet confident enough to confront Prince Zian head-on.

So, he and Jun Yao rode on Xigou’s back and quickly made their escape.

Soon, they had fled from Hutuo County and silently entered Liujiang County, getting farther away.

...

...

Royal palace!

Prince Zian, who was meditating, suddenly shivered, his expression dramatically changing!

That chill came from deep within his Bloodline!

"My son, Kuanji, is dead?!"

Prince Zian first froze, then sensed something and looked off into the distance.

"Someone!"

Prince Zian sprang up and shouted urgently.

Ji Xiangjun hurried over, kneeling on one knee, "My Prince..."

Before she could finish, Prince Zian quickly ordered, "Go find out where Ji Kuanji has gone!"

Ji Xiangjun, puzzled, replied, "Yes!"

Shortly after, she returned with a report, "My Prince, the Princely Heir found traces of Fang Zhixing and followed the Chief Steward Qiu Wuliang out yesterday. He has not returned since."

"Fang Zhixing!"

Prince Zian flew into a rage, his eyes splitting with fury, and roared to the sky, "I let you live, and you dared to kill my son!"

"What..."

Ji Xiangjun was completely stunned. Fang Zhixing killed Ji Kuanji?!

Luo Family Old Residence · Qingliang Temple

In just a few days, the old Luo family residence had undergone a transformation, with several plaques replaced and several Buddha statues moved in.

Soon, the luxurious mansion turned into a quite imposing temple.

The name hadn’t changed; it was still Qingliang Temple.

But at this time, Qingliang Temple was anything but refreshing, with opulence all around and a bustling gate.

Many Buddhists came to burn incense and made wishes, hoping to send their children to the temple to learn martial arts.

Many from Jianghu also came upon hearing its fame, wanting to meet the renowned Master Jing Ming.

Rumor had it that Master Jing Ming was a powerful Martial Artist of the Hundred Cows Realm with profound Buddhist knowledge who liked to solve people’s doubts.

Many Martial Artists saw rapid improvements in their Cultivation after receiving Master Jing Ming’s guidance.

Everyone praised the boundless Buddhist dharma, proclaiming that Buddhism delivers all beings.

As for the Luo Family, it seemed to have become history, quickly forgotten.

Nothing better exemplifies the fleeting nature of relationship than this.

A white Bai Niu carrying a blindfolded woman arrived at Qingliang Temple at a leisurely pace.

"Amitabha, this humble monk warmly welcomes Judge Ye."

Master Jing Ming personally came out to greet her, his face full of smiles.

"Undeserved."

Ye Zixuan hopped off the back of the Bai Niu, returning the courtesy without subservience, and sighed, "The Buddhist fortune shines bright, impossible to block."

Master Jing Ming asked with a smile, "Why does Judge Ye say this?"

Ye Zixuan spoke in a complex tone, "The Crown Prince has been killed. Guess who did it, Master?"

Master Jing Ming’s expression changed, then he brought his hands together and began to recite the Diamond Sutra.

Yu State · Pan Mountain!

Dan State and Dai State were actually not adjacent to each other.

Looking at the map, Dan State and Yu State were neighbors.

Yu State was oval-shaped, with a tentacle extending from one end.

This tentacle was a massive mountain range named Pan Mountain.

Above the Pan Mountain range was Dan State, while below it lay Dai State.

Fang Zhixing was incredibly powerful, and Xigou had astonishing physical endurance; they didn’t take detours.

They drew a straight line on the map and then scaled mountains and crossed rivers as they encountered them.

To Fang Zhixing and Xigou, the towering mountains and vast rivers of the human world, no matter how treacherous or insurmountable even for flying birds, simply couldn’t halt their progress.

Thus, they left Dan State at top speed and entered Yu State.

At this moment!

Xigou cleared the summit of Pan Mountain, thousands of meters high, and looking out, Dai State seemed within reach.

All along the way, Fang Zhixing had been observing the terrain, slowly furrowing his brow.

"Xigou, have you noticed anything?" he transmitted through thought.

With his tongue out panting, Xigou replied, "Noticed what?"

Fang Zhixing continued, "The world we live in might not be a planet."

Xigou was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise, "Really? Not a planet?"

On Earth, people also took a very long time to realize that the world was spherical.

For example, when ships emerged from the horizon at sea, those standing on the shore would first spot the mast.

But in this world, Fang Zhixing had not observed such phenomena.

As they exchanged thoughts, Xigou swiftly dashed down Pan Mountain, kicking up a flurry of snow.

Boom boom boom~

Suddenly, the accumulated snow from the mountain peak began to flow downwards, quickly turning into an avalanche, beyond anyone’s control.

The avalanche spread out, encompassing a broad area.

"Damn!"

Xigou was speechless for a while; the avalanche was clearly triggered by him.

And instead of descending the mountain in a straight line, he was traveling diagonally along the mountain range.

This meant that he would inevitably collide with the oncoming avalanche.

For a moment, Xigou had no choice but to run as fast as he could.

Seeing this, Fang Zhixing grasped the Myriad People Blade and slashed forward.

Whoosh!

A sword gang several hundred meters long released, rolling forward.

In an instant, the avalanche was split in two.

The flowing snow from the mountaintop rolled back!

"Good!"

Xigou was overjoyed and dashed out of the avalanche’s reach with incredible speed.

Unknowingly, the two men and dog entered Dai State without incident along the way.

Their first stop in Dai State was Dai Mountain County.

According to the plan, Fang Zhixing waited there for Yan Jingfeng and Fan Qiulai.

Two days later, someone arrived, and it was actually Fan Qiulai who came first.

"Brother, look what I’ve brought you!"

Fan Qiulai laughed heartily, lifting a pot-bellied bottle in his hand and giving it a shake.

The sound of water echoed!

"One Yuan Heavy Water!"

Fang Zhixing was overjoyed, snatching the bottle eagerly.

[1, Collect one piece of Five Elements Attribute Treasures (completed)]

"Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic!"

Fang Zhixing couldn’t contain his joy; the Five Elements were finally gathered.

And the second condition wasn’t difficult to fulfill; he would need to soak the Myriad People Blade in his own blood for three days.

No sooner said than done.

Fang Zhixing prepared a large bathtub, placing the Myriad People Blade at the bottom.

Then, he punctured his heart and let the blood flow in until the blade was submerged.

After two days, Yan Jingfeng finally arrived.

"I apologize for being late!"

Yan Jingfeng’s face was full of remorse. "I have quite a few enemies in Dai State, so I took a long detour in order not to alarm them."

"It doesn’t matter!"

Fang Zhixing and Fan Qiulai showed understanding.

The three sat down to talk.

Yan Jingfeng’s expression turned solemn, and he spoke earnestly, "Let me briefly introduce the situation in Dai State."

"Dai State is ruled by ’one sect and one prince’."

"This one sect is naturally the Five Elements Sect, an immense and deeply-rooted major sect."

"This prince refers to the ’Red Bright Prince,’ a current prince who reveres Taoism. Rumor has it that in his youth, he once cultivated in the Five Elements Sect."

"This one sect and one prince suppress all contenders, with the entirety of Dai State bowing to their commands."

"Besides this, you should be particularly wary; Dai State is teeming with cults. Although the majority of commoners follow Taoism, Taoism itself is a mixed bag. Plus, there are many obscure and mysterious religions, creating a very chaotic environment."
